Arsenal are to hold contract talks with all of their star players, in order to avoid a difficult summer next year, report the Telegraph.
It is understood that the likes of Aaron Ramsey, Theo Walcott, Danny Welbeck and Nacho Monreal are under contracts that expire in 2019, and the Gunners want to hand them new deals, so that there will be no contract confusion come next summer.
Arsene Wenger is still holding talks with Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Ozil, and is confident they will give their all for the club this season, and not disrupt the dressing room. However, after the players rejected new deals, it is unlikely that Arsenal will make any more enhanced offers until their contracts expire.
Arsenal seem to be having a bit of a crisis this summer, with Sanchez wanting out, Oxlade-Chamberlain departing for pastures new at Liverpool, and supporters voicing their concerns over the club’s poor start to the season.
Wenger has called for squad harmony and for supporters to get behind the team, but there is sure to be more twists and turns backstage at the Emirates in the coming months.
